It's so tricky betting against the Patriots because they regularly beat more talented teams with a combination of brilliant coaching, great leadership at QB, and cheating or near cheating. The only caveat is that their Super Bowls are always close games...in the seven SB's with Brady/Belichick they have won or lost by three points four times and four points twice. Once they won by six.
I think the Eagles can run the ball against the Patriots, but Foles needs to have a good game. If Foles is not accurate early, Belichick will put everyone on the line to stop their running game.
